COVID Conversation Series – Oklahoma State University

COVID Conversation Series – Oklahoma State University

In this edition of the Region IV COVID Conversation Series, we chat with Brittney Jacobs, Klee Sellers and Britton Lyon with the Oklahoma State University Department of Wellness. Their facility reopens on Monday, August 3. During our conversation, Klee and Britton address the challenges in creating Intramural programming  and the various drafts given physical distancing guidelines, and the importance of gathering student feedback early and often. Brittany highlights the major adjustments in the facility, including an updated cleaning schedule during designated closed hours during each day and mask requirements.
